Hello from Tulsa, Oklahoma to Sheila Shigley and others! I'll see what I can
do to put you in touch with tribes & nations here in Oklahoma that are
developing language curriculum. (Most tribes here have some kind
of language project going.)

Some other resources to try:

Native American Language Institute in Choctaw, OK
Talk to Dr. Carl Downing at 405-454-2158

American Indian Research & Development in Norman, OK
Talk to Stuart Tonemah or Gus Palmer at 405-364-0656

Please let me know what you find... take care now!
